TRAINER SW03A Street Workout Parallel Bars with Posts

The TRAINER SW03A parallel bars are supplied with their own posts, measuring 160 x 8 x 220 cm for a weight of 55 kg and requiring a safety zone of 466 x 510 cm. Difficulty is rated medium, for users from 140 cm and up to 150 kg. Certified to EN 16630:2015-06 and tested by TUV Rheinland, they are supplied by Light In Fitness at 1,098 EUR excluding VAT.

Posts at 220 cm change what the bars can do

These are street workout parallel bars, not trail parallel bars, and the 220 cm post height is the reason. The uprights carry the bars at working height while leaving overhead structure available, so the module reads as part of a rig rather than as an isolated apparatus, and it connects to the rest of the TRAINER street workout system. Users get dips, straight-arm support holds and suspension work from the same frame, loading arms, chest, back, waist, abdominals and legs depending on the movement chosen.

• Dips, support holds and suspension exercises on one module
• Works arms, chest, back, waist, abdominals and legs
• Improves limb mobility and cardiorespiratory condition
• Modular: combines with other TRAINER street workout apparatus
• Difficulty rated medium, accessible to intermediate users

How it differs from the freestanding parallel bars

The freestanding R-series parallel bars stand 153 cm high on their own base, are rated high difficulty and are designed to be placed anywhere on a plan. The SW03A is 220 cm, comes with posts that integrate into a street workout structure, and is rated medium. In specification terms: choose the freestanding version for a fitness trail with apparatus spread along a route, and the SW03A where the bars are one bay of a calisthenics area that may be extended later.

Groundworks and phasing

The posts are set in concrete foundations sized against ground conditions at design stage, and the 466 x 510 cm safety zone must remain clear of paths, planting and adjacent apparatus. Because the system uses standard connection points, further bays can be added in a later budget year without disturbing the installed structure, provided every module comes from the same certified range. Standard colours are yellow (RAL 1018/7004), graphite (RAL 7016/9006), orange (RAL 2000/9006) and lime (RAL 6018/9006).

Frequently asked questions

Do I still need to order posts separately?

No. This reference includes the uprights, which is what the A suffix denotes. It can therefore be installed as the first module on a bare site. Where an existing TRAINER street workout structure already has a free bay, the bar-only reference is the cheaper option.

Can it be combined with another manufacturer’s rig?

Not within a certified assembly. EN 16630 applies to the structure as installed, so mixing systems invalidates the certification of the whole. Within the TRAINER street workout range the connection points are standard and the rig can be extended freely.

What does medium difficulty mean in practice?

That a user with average upper-body strength can perform the reference exercise, in this case a controlled dip, with some progression available. Beginners use the bars for support holds and inverted rows; advanced users use them for L-sits and transitions. One module therefore serves a wide range of the population, which is unusual for a calisthenics apparatus.
